Monday Bitchfest!

Time to throw them down, ladies.

absolutelymaybe

And since I'm up at 3:37am, I'll start.

Welcome back, morning sickness. The third trimester was totally feeling left out of the party.

I have to work this holiday. It's taking everything I have to get moving. I have exactly 17 minutes before I have to get my butt out of bed and get moving. So not cool.

@my cat - wtf do you have to crowd me in bed all night? There's plenty of room, it's sticky hot and fyi - you're covered in fur! I get that I'm your preferred human, but couldn't I fulfill that role from about 12" away from you?

@JustJainey‌ I love that you tried to tag your cat.

Who knows what he gets up to while we're all at work.  I swear if he had access to our credit card, we'd get all sorts of surprises coming to the house.

I'm w/ you ladies on the morning sickness. I started getting it at week 6, and it's still going strong at week 28. WTF. Heartburn / acid reflux recently decided to join the party too. These little ladies are already giving me a run for the money

I slept like crap last night too. So I decided to hit snooze just one more time. I was sleeping SO good the last half hour and DH woke me up 10 min before my alarm... "arent you going to be late for work?!?!? "
I appreciate the thought hubs really I do, but IM SO TIRED...AND I HAD 10 MIN LEFT.... ugh

I have a UTI so I'm on antibiotics for the second time this pregnancy - first time was for BV.  I was really hoping these (cephalexin) would be better than the last time (metronidazole).  Nope.  Still make me queasy.  I really hate feeling sick and I have three more days of them.

And baby seems to have taken up what could only be a transverse position.  I don't think my belly can stretch any farther.

I love sleep and pregnancy is fucking with my sleep. I shouldn't wake up in pain every half hour to try and get comfortable again. Damn this hip/pelvic/back pain!!! At least when baby is here and wakes me up at night, he will be cute.

Kristy774

Another one that slept like crap. I've also been excited that I've felt calmer about my moms results we get on Friday and then last night bam, out of nowhere, super anxiety all night long.

Come on Friday.

*please bear with me the next few days ladies, I'll try to keep the talking of this to a minimum

jessa1228

I feel like crap. I don't know if it's the return of morning sickness or I'm actually coming down with something, but I haven't been feeling well since yesterday afternoon. I really wanted to get a bunch of stuff done today since I'm off work, but I'm not sure I can get off the couch :-(

DH and I go on our 5th anniversary trip to New York next week. We've been planning it for over a year. My back and sciatic pain has been so bad this past couple weeks I am not even sure how I'll be able to walk much. I'm so bummed and worried about ruining our trip. Why must back pain be so crappy.

MrsC430

@heisenberg More thoughts & prayers to your brother and his wife. Kudos to you for being such a thoughtful sister. Having the support of our family/friends was a huge source of comfort for us.

aodom52309

Glad to know I'm not the only one who slept horribly. Couldn't get comfy because when I was comfy baby kept kicking me in my side and when I readjusted I wasn't comfortable.

Also, getting really frustrated with my Grandmother who is hosting my shower. I'm trying to be nice and not speak my mind but at this point I'm just ready for the shower to come and be over with.

tinkerbell1658

Im still so tired! I want energy, havent had any this whole pregnancy. Poor ds, i have to drag myself to do anything. Its 10am on the last day of my 3 day weekend. I want to be somewhat productive!!

I went to see my friend who had surgery yesterday while H stayed home with DD. Not only did they have a great time, but he managed to get 3 loads of laundry done and changed the sheets on all the beds. Today he's going to mow the lawns and paint all of the doors in the house. I feel like a total slacker, since when I take care of DD it's all I can do to keep up with her. I know I'm growing a person and he isn't, but I still feel like a loser!

jillybean7582

I have two this morning.

1) why do I have to be short with a short torso? I was 30wks yesterday and baby is out of room to grow. Can I magically be 6ft tall with a long torso for the next 10wks please? Same thing with DS around the 30wk mark was when I got super uncomfortable with him too but somehow managed to forget that till now. I can literally feel her feet pressing against my right side and her rump/back pushing against my left side. Hopefully she will be on the smaller healthy side like DS (7lbs) cause I don't think 8lbs or 9lbs of baby is fitting in this mama...

2) My work and DH work need to stop being so busy. I have been work 50-60hrs and DH 70hrs for the past two months. We have 10wks or less till little lady comes and we have done ZERO to prepare since we have been so busy. All our baby gear is still in storage and needs cleaned and organized. I have 5-6 tupperware containers of clothes from my cousin and SIL and I haven't even cracked them open to peek let alone organized or washed anything. Fingers crossed there are 0-3 month items in there or this is gonna be one cold naked baby girl.

sweetbabyrahe

For once I have nothing to bitch about. DS slept in until 8, it's Monday and I don't have to work, DH just took DS with him to run errands so I could have some alone time... I'm a happy girl !

gldnbearz

DH killed four mosquitoes that were in the bedroom last night. Old house and no screens. Itching and more itching today.

NLJ82

Is the universe against us here?! I also had a crappy sleeping night. LO is in a weird position and I haven't been able to feel him move much in the past 2 days so I woke up every little bit and laid there trying to feel something, tossing and turning, dreaming weird/scary thing, etc. I JUST WANNA SLEEP NORMAL AGAIN!

Also back and feet...Y U HATE ME, YO!?s

kjmommy1214

Add another one to the no sleep club. Between not being in my own bed and worrying about DH, I got very little sleep. Plus, I have to get up at 430 to take my new bp pill every morning.

minibean16

I'm trying to plan my clothes for the week, because my dress/work clothes options have gone from 'how does one person have so many things?' to 'I have four shirts from motherhood maternity.'

The worst is the shoes. Carrie Bradshaw and I share a problem. I have hundreds of funky stilettos. But this darn SPD means I can wear NONE of them.

So my cute outfit for tomorrow will be paired with plain black flats. Forecast is the same for the next three months

Oh sleep...
We stayed at a hotel this weekend for a little babymoon away and while the beds felt so comfy at first i couldnt fall asleep or stay asleep and ended up with lovely little back pains. So now the 6 hour drive home begins.

AbbeyH

I want to bitch about a 35 year old employee that brings his mommy to fight his work battles.

For serious!?! Grow up!!!

Jan1214

My bitch: I'm going through my rooms and closets to get ready for new carpet. How have we acquired so much shit? And how does stuff get so dusty? Ughhhhhh! I just want to leave my house and get a new one with empty closets.

@heisenberg‌ - my thoughts are with your brother and his wife. Infertility sucks! We've been there (as have several women on this board). I recommend the Infertility board on TB if she is the type to like online forums. They were my home during our treatments.

I would like to bitch about DH.

So we went away on our babymoon this weekend (which was lovely!), however he had the genius idea to turn off the AC.  With highs in the 90s all weekend.  So we came home to a house that was like 88*.  Not cool when you are 30 weeks pregnant, DH.  Also, I cleaned the bathrooms before we unpacked all our toiletries onto the sink and told him we need to hire a cleaning lady.  Between being pregnant and my wrist hurting like a bitch, I am not in the mood to do this shit for the next 10 weeks.  Believe me, I am not an anal cleaner, but I do like our sinks sprayed and wiped down every few weeks.  In between I just use the quick lysol wipe things.  He better get on board because momma is boycotting.

That is all.  I shall continue to sit here in this sauna.  I don't know how people live without AC.

Also, I 100000% realized these are total first world problems.

Add me to to the no sleep club. This is day 5 of sleeping in 2 hour increments due to baby bouncing on my bladder and heartburn. I go to sleep at 11, I am up at 1 like clock work with burning heartburn, then at 3 and for 5 for a pee and then i just get up at 7. It is so hard to get comfortable, my hips kill me and my pregnancy pillow is just not cutting it. I just want to sleep! 

On a less bitchy note, my labour day has been going great! Hope everyone else's is too!

I have to bitch about DH for a minute. He's what I affectionately like to call rough and tumble (R&T for short). He's always misplacing things and he's not very careful with things. I'm used to it generally and try to laugh it off mostly.

Well we went to a wedding on Saturday and when I went to pull out his suit the pants were missing. I searched the entire house for them and still can't find them. This was a new suit last fall and he has only worn it maybe 4 times. How do you lose suit pants? Oh and they were about $300.

He has one of those Otterbox cases for his new cell phone, but recently decided that he didn't like how he had to take the hard plastic part off to charge the phone so he removed the whole case. At the time I told him not to do it because he'd crack the screen for sure. Guess what happened today? Yup screen is cracked. Guess who isn't getting a new phone?

heisenberg said:

Thanks @absolutelymaybe‌. I don't know my SIL that well, but I'll mention to my brother to tell her.

That answered what I was going to ask. I was going to give a heads up that IF can cause some major family issues. Dh & his brother's relationship is fairly rocky--it's not all due to our losses, but it's a huge factor.

I'm another one on the shit sleep boat. My belly was sooo upset last night, I was awake every 2-4hrs having to use the bathroom. GAH!

jmichlik

Never thought this would happen but I am outgrowing my maternity clothes, WTH?! Everything I bought had that lovely little "buy your pre-pregnancy size" label on it so I did, and yet I've had to buy a bunch of clothes that are several sizes bigger lately. I guess it's the way I'm carrying, I'm pretty much all stomach and boobs and normal sized everywhere else, but I did not realize I would have to keep buying more clothes. I don't really care what size I wear, I'm just annoyed because it's getting expensive and I only have 9 weeks to go.

mander82

I hafta go back to work tomorrow after 5 days off. (

Netflix took Sesame Street off of its instant streaming. That is the only damn show that will hold DD's interest. How the hell am I suppose to get anything done in the morning with a clingy toddler crying to be held? Bleh.

@ClrkKntismyAE We were not impressed to see this. DD loves Sesame Street. DH said to just get her to like something else...so he put on barney. I had to turn it off it was driving me insane. Looks like we will be just watching you tube clips of sesame street
